A thoughtful and emotional story of the poor is offered in this cinema verite glimpse of a black family's life in a slum apartment in Washington, D.C. The home is a stopping place for country relatives who come to the city looking for jobs, as well as a home-away-from-home for friends. Over the noise and confusion of the household, and the continuous sound of television, Mrs. Graham tells about her life and her feelings.
